Men and Facelift Surgery
Facelift in men, as in women, is to make the face look more youthful, by reducing sagginess and excess skin around the lower part of the face and neck. A facelift can make a man look five to ten years younger.
Men and Cosmetic Eyelid Surgery
Cosmetic eyelid surgery can be performed on the upper or lower eyelid. Upper eyelid surgery is performed on drooping eyelids. Lower eyelid surgery reduces puffiness.

Men and Liposuction
Liposuction is a body sculpting procedure. This is a great cosmetic procedure for removing fat from troublesome areas of the body. Men usually choose to have liposuction performed on the chin and the waistline.
Men and Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty is a cosmetic surgery procedure that reshapes the nose cartilage. This procedure refines the nose contours. Reshaping the nose can create significant improvements to one’s appearance by complementing other facial features.

Men and Breast Reduction Surgery
